Got new wheels but will this be a problem

I just got my new DPE LS5's, 19x8 & 19x10 for my 04 coupe, but after test fitting a rear wheel without a tire it looks like it sticks out from the fender just a bit. Maybe 3/16 inch. I did some measurements and found the offset to be +16mm. I will deffinatly need the fenders rolled but even after that I am affraid it might rub the fender still. The rear is an inch lower with H&R springs. Does anyone else have a 19x10 with such an aggresive offset? Will this work OK? The tires I will be using are 275/35 PS2's.

if that offset is true, it is super aggressive... might not even fit.

i would roll the fenders and give it a tad more neg camber.

I had to roll my fenders with my DPEs too, but I have a 20x10. From what I've read alot of guys running DPEs end up rolling the rear fenders. kinda sucks, you'd expect better fitmet from a custom rim but it's how they make them for an aggressive look.
